Nessus tracks Ubuntu security advisories and can test for them if you provide SSH credentials, and those would also cover PHP / MySQL provided you're using the distro's package management feature to install the apps. As for Joomla, Nessus can check for most of the flaws remotely as well as in some of the more popular add-ons. Disclaimer: I work for Tenable (the folks behind Nessus) and write many of the plugins for Nessus. George -- theall@tifaware.com Attachment:
